– All requirements (customer and internal) are to be traced
– Identifies a mapping of requirement to life cycle work products
– Provides the linkage of requirements to work product decomposition (i.e., requirement →design →code →test →deliverables, etc.)
– Provides forward and backwards mapping of requirements to associated work products throughout all phases of the life cycle
– NOTE: this may be included as a function of another defined work product (example: A CASE tool for design decomposition may have a mapping ability as part of its features) |
